EXPAND YOUR MIND, REFINE YOUR WARDROBE

A QUARTERLY PUBLICATION FOR GENTLEMEN

Welcome to the website for Chap, which aims to bring you a mix of excerpts from the latest issue of our magazine, full features from previous editions and previously unpublished content. You don’t have to read the actual magazine to enjoy this website – but it certainly helps…

London Boy Lou

“Wondered if you’d ‘ave the time to assess the sartorial credentials of this dandy in the underworld,” writes London Boy Lou. “What could be more indicative of one’s immense chapability than writing about oneself in the third person, eh?”
A decent command of the English language? However, we are actually impressed both by Mr. Boy Lou’s fashionably unhyphenated double barrelled surname and his dapper backstreet gangster ensemble that, for once, is nothing like a character from Peaky Blinders.

The Chap was founded in 1999 and is the longest-serving British magazine dedicated to the gentlemanly way of life, with its own quirky, satirical take on a style that has recently entered the mainstream.
